Yes Its possible to mount a SFX Power Supply at bottom behind the motherboard tray IN SSUPD MeshLicious,
could just screw through the panel holes with the PSU screws to hold it in place, not sure on the vented holes of the PSU & the holes on the Case
Also the position of the power switch & power cable input have to be just right. if not some Modding.

Possible if your Using CPU IGPU Graphics or use the horizontal position for a graphics card that 180mm to 245mm long If not using a front radiator with fans

Mod the SSD/HDD trays at front bottom

Thanks for the tips. I ended up with the Meshroom S fossil grey version, love the build quality of the case and modular options.

Anyone tried to mount a gpu at the front of the Meshy or Meshroom?

I don't think that's wise,
(1) the PCI-E Mounting brackets at the rear of case
(2) if there is a way to mount a GPU at the front the heat be inside
be more problems if it was mounted someway at front.

I suppose with an appropriate bracket and cable extensions you could, but, you'd be cutting off airflow into the front of the case, question would be, why would you want to?

I have an matx mobo going in so front access will be restricted anyway, so there goes that idea.
I love the modularity of the case but just wish it was a little longer and wider so it could accomodate atx components a bit better. I know 3d printed extensions exist but they're all plastic and of not great quality IMO.

@michaelosmolski You inspired me in what you was saying about the PSU bottom/behind motherboard

I got a build mod project incoming, will post in full later on today photos.

PSU on the GPU side support brackets, different..

You got the glass or mesh case?

The GPU support bars, turned them both flat to support the PSU, Glass panel was on the GPU right side, so swapped the mech panel around.

I figured i would try mounting a gpu in front of the motherboard and low and behold my sapphire 6600 XT fits exactly (length wise).
The only issue I have is working out how to secure the pci bracket to the case so the GPU doesnt move. It's pretty tight with the riser and the rear of the gpu wedged to the front of the case, but can't rely on that alone.
Any suggestions?

I found a bracket from another case (NATX V2), drilled some holes in the SFX bracket and viola!
All I need now is a spray paint of fossil grey and job done.

Yep a L shape bracket do the job, I guess one could even 3D Print a bracket.

I could do that with my 225mm long GPU, only thing is I love the Tamper-glass,
It could work if I placed a 14mm thick fan at front bottom for air intake, Now you got me thinking again now, I could then have the 120mm Rad at top & Solve MY AIO Pump problem,
I have no SSD/HDD 3.5.25inch drives so might as well give it a shot, After all look at that space not being used up :cry:

Nice one

The only thing I woudl say for now, is be aware that air will settle at the highest point of your loop, which in your case is the CPU block.
For safety sake, could you not stick the rad at the top to its higher than the CPU block?

Hey Trig, Yes I tried only way for me is to Do what Michael as done, Being a Arctic AIO the barbies on the rad too thick/tall to go past the bottom of the motherboard.
& now the GPU in the way to go full top of case, If I had another brand like a ASUS/Corsair that use thinner Rad's & adjustable angle hoses it be all ok.
